Our Emergency Veterinarians
Dr. Brian Schillig
Dr. Schillig did his undergraduate studies at Bowling Green State University and his veterinary medical degree from The Ohio State University in 1999. He started his career in emergency medicine outside of Cleveland, Ohio, working in Connecticut then Canton Ohio, before working in a busy specialty hospital in Tucson, Arizona. Dr. Schillig is driven by the human animal bond and helping to get his patients and their owners through the stressful events that usually surround a visit to the emergency veterinarian.
Outside of work, Dr. Schillig is passionate about doing his part for the environment, including powering his home and vehicle with solar energy and even riding his bicycle in place of driving his car when at all feasible. Dr. Schillig does love to ride his bicycle, even if it’s to nowhere on his Peloton. His spare time when not seeing patients or straddling a bicycle, Dr. Schillig spends with his daughter(13) and son(10).
